Yesterday we went in for L's 6 month well baby appointment. We seem to be a bit off on the timing of the appointments (4 month well baby happening when she was 5 months, 6 month well baby happening 3 days before she turns 7 months). Anyway, she's doing wonderfully! Here's the rundown:
-She's a VERY HEALTHY 18lbs 11oz and in the 80% for her weight (not surprised, she's a lot harder to lift out of her carseat and that's how I've gauged when she's gaining weight). The Dr. made sure to give me a "go mom!" for keeping up the nursing, even though she's eating a couple things of babyfood a day, most of her nutrition is still coming from me.
- She's 26 in. long and in the 55% for that.
-For head circumference she's in the 75%.
All in all, she's developing just perfectly. He was very surprised to hear that she's already trying to pull up on things and that she actually does get places when she tries to crawl (even though she gets there backwards...minor detail). We love our new pediatrician, he's very nice and is so wonderful with her. She was all smiles for him, which, I'm sure she won't be next time because we'll be going in for shots...ick. Here are the pictures from the day:
This is quite possibly my favorite time of day with L. She's SO PRECIOUS in the morning. Sweet and snuggly and happy as a clam. She'll laugh and smile at anything during the first couple of hours she's awake. Not to mention that I have a slight obsession with footed pj's, there is just something incredibly sweet and innocent about them.
Logan was much more interested in the paper on the table in the Dr.'s office than she was with all of the toys they had for her to play with. She spent quite a while just crumpling and pulling at it.
And then proceeded to cover her head with it which she's in the process of doing in this picture.
Then we had a relaxing afternoon at home. We played with our toes and read books, which she's very into right now. She'll sit and listen and look at the pictures for hours if you read to her.
Logan finally is starting to get the hang of this "say cheese!" thing. Every once and a while she'll see you pull the camera and she'll ham it up for you. We love her!

Glad to hear she is doing so well! Once they get to 6 months their little personalities come out and it is sooo cute but not as cute as 10 months, that is my FAVORITE age, because they are so cute, have so much personality but they aren't bad yet and dont need to be discplined.
